This Common Tern was working this area for food in front of us. It turned head on to us and was flapping away before diving into the water to catch a fish. I liked the angle because it was head on to us instead of the usual side view. It still worked the area for a while, diving and hovering. Then moved down the waterway away from us.

Common Tern After Dive with Fish, Still Showing Splash from Dive and Flying Out of the Water. I tried to get as much of the water ripple while still showing the Tern. Canon 1D MkIV, Canon 400mm f/4 DO IS, Canon Series III 1.4X Teleconverter, f/8, 1/2000 sec, ISO 400
